Raising children is truly an exciting adventure! Each day brings new discoveries that parents can enjoy right along with their children. However, child rearing can also present frustrating and stressful situations when children refuse to listen and obey. When ?No? Gets You Nowhere—Teaching Your Toddler and Child Self-Control offers parents three categories of reasons to say ?no? and other options to saying ?no? that will build trust between parents and children. This trust can begin to develop when parents learn to say ?no? in a different way. Acknowledging your child?s feelings, giving your child choices, and demonstrating consequences to your child?s actions are examples of such options. Author Mark L. Brenner says that besides having children live in a loving and balanced home, parents should, ?always acknowledge and allow [their] child the freedom to express his or her feelings without censorship.? In When ?No? Gets You Nowhere, Brenner provides both his Seven-Step Method for Saying ?No? and the rationale for why these methods work. Other chapters include: • Dangerous No?s • Don?t talk Down—Talk Up! • A Matter of Trust • Summary of ?Knows? Parenting does not have to be a frustrating experience. When ?No? Gets You Nowhere, is an essential guide for parents who are facing a problem situation with their child and for those parents who want to avoid problems before they begin.

In early 2007, there were approximately 140 living wage ordinances in place throughout the United States. Communities around the country frequently debate new proposals of this sort. Additionally, as a result of ballot initiatives, twenty-nine states and the District of Columbia, representing nearly 70 percent of the total U.S. population, maintain minimum wage standards above those set by the federal minimum wage.
In A Measure of Fairness, Robert Pollin, Mark Brenner, Jeannette Wicks-Lim, and Stephanie Luce assess how well living wage and minimum wage regulations in the United States serve the workers they are intended to help. Opponents of such measures assert that when faced with mandated increases in labor costs, businesses will either lay off workers, hire fewer low-wage employees in the future, replace low-credentialed workers with those having better qualifications or, finally, even relocate to avoid facing the increased costs being imposed on them.
The authors give an overview of living wage and minimum wage implementation in Louisiana, New Mexico, Arizona, California, Massachusetts, and Connecticut to show how these policies play out in the paychecks of workers, in the halls of legislature, and in business ledgers. Based on a decade of research, this volume concludes that living wage laws and minimum wage increases have been effective policy interventions capable of bringing significant, if modest, benefits to the people they were intended to help.
